Kylie and Kyndal are not only the sweetest duo but also have the sweetest story. I am going to steal it from their website because it is told so beautifully …

Kylie and Kyndal share a unique love story and give God all the credit for working out the intricate details that have culminated to an incredible long distance relationship of nearly six years. Although they are both natives of Tennessee, they had to travel all the way to Washington, D.C. to meet each other. They both entered an essay competition during their junior year of high school. This essay competition was sponsored by electric cooperatives in towns across the U.S., and the top three essay winners from each sponsored school were offered an all-expense paid trip to Washington, D.C. Kyndal and Kylie both entered and won from their respective schools and were given a free trip to D.C. During the first night of the trip, Kyndal recalls seeing one of the most beautiful girls he's ever laid eyes on. Kyndal typically hated speaking in front of large groups of people; however, during the student-led bible study on Sunday morning of the trip, he felt lead to pray in front of the entire Tennessee group. When he got on stage to pray, Kylie was immediately drawn to him and amazed by his fearlessness to share his love for God. She remembers praying during his prayer for God to send her a guy like the handsome one sharing his love for Jesus on the stage. Little did she know, God planned to send her the exact man she prayed for. They met right after the service on the escalator. After that, they were inseparable for the rest of the trip. Kyndal tried to talk to Kylie every chance that he could, and Kylie was constantly hoping he would come talk to her. On the final night of the trip, there was a huge dance for everyone on the trip. Although there were over 1,000 students there, Kyndal sought Kylie out and stole her heart with his smooth (but goofy) moves on the dance floor. She remembers dancing with him and as he spun her around, she thought, "I could dance with this man for the rest of my life and be perfectly happy." (She also realized how crazy that sounded because she had only known Kyndal for a few days.) However, she soon found out that Kyndal felt the same way. After the dance, they realized that they lived four and a half hours away from one another, and they left the trip not knowing if they'd ever see each other again. However, God had bigger plans. Kyndal continuously pursued Kylie and drove with his mom and sister to Dollywood for their first official date. After that, they knew they were crazy about each other and willing to do whatever it took to make things work between them. Kylie and her dad drove to Clarksville for Kyndal's homecoming, and then, Kyndal came to see Kylie win Homecoming Queen. That night, he asked her to be his girlfriend, and they've been inseparable for the past five and a half years.

How adorable is that?! I am a hopeless romantic and their story just slays me...
